Lyrics Double Cross - Mary Coughlan

Double Cross

I wake up in the morning
I get out of bed and drag my makeup on
I walk out on the street, my every exit’s covered
I hitch up my pants and I fake it just like a man
Every hold that I had on time
Every dream that I thought was mine
Well, it’s all quite forgotten now
Lost without the double cross of you
Like my coffee I’ve grown cold
I stay behind and fade into the wall
I’m lost amongst the jostling crowds at lunchtime
I’m hoping you’ll come but I know that you won’t even call
Every hold that I had on time
Every dream that I thought was mine
Well, it’s all quite forgotten now
Lost without the double cross of you
Every hold that I had on time
Every dream that I thought was mine
Well, it’s all quite forgotten now
Lost without the double cross of you
My social smile comes out again
My glass in hand, I’ve a word for one and all
Ah, but deep inside I’m crying just like a baby
I’m all grown up but I never learned how to crawl
Every hold that I had on time
Every dream that I thought was mine
Well, it’s all quite forgotten now
Lost without the double cross of you
Every hold that I had on time
Every dream that I thought was mine
Well, it’s all quite forgotten now
Lost without the double cross of you
Every hold that I had on time
(Every hold that I had on time)
Every dream that I thought was mine
(Every dream that I thought was mine)
Well, it’s all quite forgotten now
